Is Nancy Grance the new royalty of cable news?
Insiders are buzzing about her highest ratings to date. On Thursday, her 8PN Headline News show averged 877,000 total viewers and 330,000 in the 25-54 demographic.
Grace beat Lou Dobbs, Anderson Cooper, Paula Zahn, and she wasn't too far away from Larry King.
For the record, here are her ratings for the last week-- Monday: 642,000/Tuesday: 745,000/Wednesday: 779,000/Thursday: 877,000
For the week, Monday through Thursday, Grace average 761,000 total viewers, a 53% increase over her May 2005 average of 498,000 viewers.
In the 25-54 demo, Grace averaged 277,000 viewers Monday-Thursday, up 80% from her May average of 154,000.

I find Greta hard to look at or listen to. Usually watch Greta for Geoff Fieger.
& Ted Williams for a chuckle. Ted is so lame.
That's because E.D. is an idiot.
Nancy Grace is okay the few times I have caught her show.
One night she really stuck it to a defense attorney. They were talking about this kid who had killed his parents then left them in the house while he went to prom and all kind of other activities for two weeks! The kid had confessed to the crime. The one attorney said that if it were her case she would get on the fact that no parents were present when he was being questioned. Nancy (and I, at the TV) yelled, "That's cause he killed them!" The stupid attorney looked like, "Oh yeah."
Nancy would be a good add to FNC, but her contract is probably too expensive now.
She doesn't cut a defendant any slack, when she believes them guilty.
She really did a number on oj, Scott Peterson & MJ is taking some hard hits.
Nancy sees defendants like I do.
I think it...she says it.
Fox also reported on the minivan chase in LA (although I have to admit that was kind of interesting).
i had no idea she was liberal... she seems to always go against the defendant... whereas most liberals tend to victimize the defendant...
Most certainly.
Nancy would only be a dream commentator for FNC.
Their ratings would go off the charts if Nancy were w/them.
BTW, why does headline news now have talk shows?
Plus the fact that we want her hand-me-downs!
Well, if you want to sugar-coat it like that....
;)
Why do you say that? Whenever I watch her, she's in favor of criminals going to jail.
Some people do not like her - Lee Peterson, Geragos, Juror 5's girlfriend, others who think she is too pro victims, etc. She stated that she could never be a defense lawyer.
She is generally pro prosecution which I like. However she always seems to have a chip on her shoulder and has a rather hard edge to her. May be this normal for a successful female lawyer.
That's what they don't like about Nancy Grace.
I admire Nancy and would like to see her take Greta's placed on Fox.
Whatever works I guess.. both women have turned serious discussion of the court system and legal matters into a circus ready made for Prime Time.
If Kimberly Guilfoyle-Newsom
plays her cards right & keeps up
her viewpoints about defendants,
she could follow on the heels
of Nancy. Kimberly & Jim Hammer
are suppose to re-try the
dog mauling case in
San Francisco.
